Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

My experience was good and fair during my last visit

I visited Dr. Grumpke for an initial visit and was very impressed with the encounter. He explained that although my spine has deteriorated due to age, there is no need to rush to surgery at this point, as the PT was alleviating my pain. He was glad I came to establish myself as a patient and advised me to call the office if my pain returned. He outlined options for the future if the pain could not be handled with nonsurgical options. He is a very knowledgable, caring physician.

Dr. Grupke took his time and explained what was going on with me thoroughly, answering all of my questions. He eased my anxiety and gave his treatment plan, but was not pushy about surgery. He was knowledgeable and trustworthy and someone I feel I can trust with something as delicate as my spine.
